 This report reviews the current World Bank portfolio in sanitation and hygiene. The Bank’s sanitation activities, ranging from latrine promotion to the construction of wastewater treatment plants, address a number of development objectives including improved health, greater human dignity, and a more sustainable environment.
This report looks particularly closely at the degree to which tha Bank’s activities support the achievement of the Millenium Development Goal (MDG) target of halving the fraction of the World’s population without access to basic sanitation by 2015, and the constraints to increasing support to that aim.
